Good morning to both. Morning.

And it's nice.

It's early on. It's early doors.

And already I've had an uncontrollable laughing fit of air.

Because Frank told me that Stanley Matthews played football until he was 50.

Yeah, play professional football. Emily was asked me how long I thought

Christiana Ronaldo might play for. And I pointed out Stanley Matthews play for his 50.

I don't know if that could have been the premier league.

I wish it were. I think he was still alive.

I wish he still was.

Obviously that was when he got to 50.
